Has Anyone Come Off Neurontin Cold Turkey?
Have had Status Migrainosus since Wednesday after coming off Neurontin. I only took 300mg 1x a day, but my neuro wanted me off because it wasn't serving a purpose.
Abruptly stopping Neurontin (Gabapentin) can lead to withdrawal symptoms, even at lower doses like 300mg daily. Symptoms may include headaches, nausea, anxiety, or worsening migraines.

@A MyMigraineTeam Member, I came off of it last Wednesday. I was only taking 1 pill- 300mg. I have plenty of pills left. My Neuro didn't have a plan for titrating me off of it.
I did once when I lost my health insurance, but I was also stopping all medications at that time.
Try to cut back instead. How many pills do you have left?
Apparently my neuro wants me off of Depakote, too. I don't see that in my list of medications. Just sent my doctor a message about that.
I hope you get that straightened out
